Re: [RCSE] Another WC picture
I saw an Icon at a recent club contest get its nose stuck in hard and fast (and I mean 'cringe-like-you've-been-kicked-in-the-pins' hard) from about 2 feet up repeatedly with no apparent damage.

One should try to land by closing flaps as we push over for the hunski. This photo emulates this. From the looks of the photo - don't want to speculate too much here, I wasn't there, I was just guessing that he didn't even go dirty and poked it over just before the horn.

No Skegs in FAI.

Looking at the pictures at the above link it appears it's not too uncommon. How well do these planes take this type of abuse? Seems like an awfully expensive lawn dart! :) Jake RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Looks like he got the hunski though... 8-) Jim Downers Grove, IL Member of the Chicago SOAR club, AMA 592537LSF 7560 Level III ICQ 6997780R/C Soaring Page at www.jimbacus.net RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.

Re: [RCSE] Another WC picture
That appears to be the very same form that I use when I SLAM my Icon on to the turf 8-( Jack At 08:27 PM 8/9/2002 -0500, James V.
